1/ There’s a reason the federal govt wasn’t prepared for this.There’s a reason we haven’t responded adequately. There’s a reason we’re not feeding the hungry. And there’s a reason why the bailout is more of a gift to the rich than to everyone else: Because sociopaths can’t love.

Marianne, many of us are stepping up. As good as we can considering there are limitations with being poor and under quarantine. We can't quite take the streets with yellow vests and maintain social distancing.

That’s not what I’m suggesting at all. I’m suggesting a massive wave of citizen activism on local, state and federal levels. It’s not about marching in the streets (they actually don’t care about that), it’s about marching to the polls.

You are right Marianne. 3 million people marched against the Iraq war and Bush Paid no attention. Said he wasn’t going to listen to a “focus group “of course I was one of them

It’s all about supporting progressive candidates now. It’s harder for them because they usually don’t have the money. Sign up and volunteer. Help them! secure.actblue.com/donate/ma…

Grassroots candidates can't do it on their own

We all need to pitch in and take a stand for our country

Oh you still believe in democracy in America. Its dead and its now an oligarchy. We can stop this via mass Civil disobedience by everyone not working.

I love when you highlight local progressives running for office. Can we ID top 5 critical races of seats that are close enough to be flipped and let’s all put our focus there, with calls etc, since Bernie is out. I pray to kick out DW Schultz!

By voting for who in this upcoming election? The obnoxious orange game show host or the warmonger with obvious dementia? Do you see why "going to the polls" doesn't work? The Dem primary was/is an illegitimate sick joke. Something else needs to happen. Voting is now compromised.

Thanks for being more specific, but can you be a little more specific? Who should we go to the polls for when we aren't even on the ballot?
